You Have £2m...

[Smiffy]

Come on then people, lets see how good a manager you really are....

Assuming our Fred leaves for around £2m and all this money is made available for strengthening the squad for the upcoming season, Who do you buy with it?...

Sensible signings please, and take into account the wages your signings will command. Being realistic, we wont pay more than about £3000 a week tops..

Fire away...

:flamer:

With two million I would pay off the mortgage and buy some investment properties. Or is that not what you're after?

 

[Smiffy]

Come on LB, play nicely..

 

[TrueBlue]

2 million hmmm run off with your mrs Smiffy she has always wanted a REAL man like myself!

 

[Smiffy]

Has anyone actually got some sensible input?

I thought there were plenty of "I can do better than Tilly" characters on here....

 

[fredheim_holm]

Sign Smiffy on right wing, for an undisclosed fee.

Nah, I really have no clue.

Well for a start I'd definitely go out and get a replacement for Freddy, Adam Boyd is apparently available for around £250k from Luton and scored 25-odd goals for Hartlepool the last time he played at this level 2 seasons ago - that wouldn't be a bad start.

 

[Smiffy]

OK so we have..

Adam Boyd - 250k

I'll add..

Nick Bailey - 250k

Bayo Akinfenwa - Free

Roy O'Donovan - 500k

Copy and paste the list so far and add your signings, at the end we can review and select £2m worth from the list.

 

[TrueBlue]

Agogo IF we could get him off forest

 

[Smiffy]

I also like the look of Aaron Davies, not sure Yeovil would part with him though

 

[EastStandBlue]

Grant Holt if we could tempt him down here. Unhappy at Forest and Calderwood clearly doesn't like him, could probably pick him up for around £250k.

 

[shrimpled]

Julian Gray - Free
Parlour - Free
Bailey - 150,000 - 200,000
Holmes - 75,000 (not sure of current contractual situation anyone help?)
Morrison - 75,000 - 100,000
Akinfenwa - Free
A.N Other defender -
Granville - Free
Collymore - why not offer him a pay as you play, i'd love him back!
Then i'd raid Luton and see who out of Bell, Boyd and Spring i could afford!

Not asking for much really, That tots up to around 400,000 (exc. wages) without the Luton Boys but i'd offer Luton 500k for the three. Failing that i say we try and buy Porter from oldham, proven at this level and him and macdonald would be a good strikeforce! seriously 4 or 5 from that lot i'd be more than happy.

 

[leeblue]

i would ask swansea how much they want for robinson then ask him if he would come here for 3k a week, he one of the only players i seen in lower levels that i actually thought was brilliant, I remember swansea away two years ago and he was the best player on the pitch apart from fred of course.

 

[shrimpled]

Yeah agreed, robinson is a very good under-rated lower league player, i can't see swansea wanting to sell but his value is probably about 250k, we'd have to bid 300k to stand a chance methinks.

 

[Smiffy]

Ok, so far on the £2m shortlist we have...

Julian Gray - Free
Parlour - Free
Holmes - £75,000 (not sure of current contractual situation anyone help?)
Morrison - £75,000 - £100,000
Akinfenwa - Free
Granville - Free
Collymore - Free
Adam Boyd - £250k
Nick Bailey - £200k
Roy O'Donovan - £500k?
Robinson - £300k?
Grant Holt - £300k?

 

[leeblue]

thats a lot of players think if you threw wages in with transfer fees 2m is well and truly *******, would have robinson, akinfenwa, bailey and morrison

 

[shrimpled]

Don't forget Bell and spring! Seems pretty reasonable so far. Sod the wages coming out of the 2 million Leeblue. We won't be spending anywhere near 2 million on players though.

 

[Mick]

I also like the look of Aaron Davies, not sure Yeovil would part with him though

He is an outstanding prospect and his next move will be up not sideways.

 

[shrimpled]

If we are top of L1 at christmas surely it will be an upwards move Mick. Maybe we could do a swap deal with harrold claiming that they sent us the wrong player!

 

[leeblue]

I only plumped for four cos i think the squad/team only needs tweaking rather than a complete overhaul.
